flannHlS Already Shrunk,

One OF the most serious
obstacles t. the more gen.
eral use of Wool Flannels
has been its shrinking quail
ties. This has now been
overcome, and we are show
ing the largest stock OF AL
ready Shrunk White and
Red Flannels ever offered
in this city.
We purchased them direct from tho manu-.
faotrrers IN New Hampshire and Indiana,
which enables us to offer them at lower
price than II purchased of iobbers. We save
to you the intermediate profit.
